Brevettato il nuovo materiale con proprietà
antibatteriche ed antinquinanti.
We have patented a new material with antibacterial and
anti-pollution properties.

This is an aggregate with very high performances in terms of quality,
carrying capacity, strength and finish. Paintable.
Distinguished by its resistance to abrasion, ultraviolet rays, pollution and
weather conditions, it is the ideal product for outdoor use.

— Water and humidity repellent.
Buzzi & Buzzi is extending its range of recessed IP 65 products. IDROROUND IP65 added to ORIS IP44 and IDROUT
IP65 and completes the collection of waterproof and humidity resistant models.
All products are made with Coral Water Out® and are designed for spa and wellbeing centres, massage parlours
or private areas ... surroundings where lighting and water play a fundamental role.

Tested for water resistance under pressure conditions of (200 +/- 50) kPa
equal to 2 atm per (72 +/- 2) h, according to the (uNI eN 12390-8:2009)
regulation.

a new material is born which blocks the penetration of water to its
interior. The waterproof effect remains unchanged within time as it is not
a superficial finishing but an intrinsic characteristic of Coral Water Out®
itself.
Devoid of maintenance, Coral Water Out® adds impermeability to the
typical characteristics of Coral® like durability, resistance and beauty.
a new material suitable for completely disappearing recessed lighting IP65/
IP44.

— Application invisibility.
Coral® is an innovative material made from natural minerals and aggregates that make it extremely resistant to
high temperatures and shocks and result in surfaces that are smooth-to-the-touch but at the same time shock and
scratch proof.
Unruined with time, Coral® can also be decorated with any type of water paint or synthetic paint, thus being able
to adapt to the taste and needs of the customer. It is an inert and environmentally friendly product and therefore
completely non-allergenic. It consists of non-toxic mineral elements which, even in case of fire, do not emit harmful
fumes. It is worth remembering that its properties also make it dust-repellent.
Coral® products do not require any specific maintenance, are certified according to CE regulations and respect the
highest quality standards of the market.

Dear Buzzi & Buzzi:
As per your request, Tile Council of North America is pleased to provide you with the following summary
of test results from the testing services you contracted from our Product Performance Laboratory
previously issued in test report number TCNA-362-10 on material you provided and designated
“AIRCORAL.”
 Test results generated from performing test method ISO 27447 (Test method for antibacterial
activity on semiconducting photocatalytic materials) showed that in all of the samples tested,
there was no survival of bacteria after eight hours in either UV-irradiated or dark test conditions.
Ref.: Report number TCNA-362-10, October 21, 2010.
 Based on test results using test method UNI 11259 (Determination of photocatalytic activity of
hydraulic binders, Rhodamine B method), the samples tested showed evidence of the ability to
degrade organic pollutants. Ref.: Report number TCNA-362-10, November 18, 2010.
 In closed chamber studies, n-hexane was degraded from an initial concentration by 17.4 ppm in
the presence of a test sample versus only 7.6 ppm concentration decrease for a generic wall tile.
Ref.: Report number TCNA-362-10, January 18, 2011.

If you have any further questions or require any further clarification on the test methodologies, please do
not hesitate to contact us. It has been a pleasure to work with you on this project. On behalf of our staff,
we thank you for the opportunity to provide these testing services to you.

Sincerely,

every product made with airCoral® is identified
by a marking with a special aluminum plate.

The innovative product airCoral® (patented and certified by the TCNa
the Tile Council of North america) as well as maintaining all the aesthetic
and strength characteristics typical of Coral®, has the added benefit
of a powerful antibacterial property against escherichia Coli, klebsiella
Pneumoniae and Staphylococcus aureus, pathogenic agents of potentially
serious disease, and the ability to degrade pollutants found in cities such as
hexane (hexano), a toxic gas that is formed due to the use of hydrocarbons
for cars and heating.

The new airCoral® material is an absolute novelty, as it helps to purify
the air and to make your surrounding environment cleaner, healthier and
more hygienic while reducing the harmful effects of major pollutants. It also
exerts its action even in the absence of light.

These features represent a steady improvement in the development of
Coral®, which has led to the new material airCoral®, a material that
not only does not pollute, but also purifies the environment where it is
installed and consequently improves the lives of its users.

airCoral® is therefore recommended for use in all public surroundings
(hospitals, medical facilities, hotels, bars and restaurants) or in private ones
where there is an overriding desire to create a healthy environment.
